The Easter Bunny is hopping into back yards everywhere, in just 2 weeks! I don't know about you, but with Christmas and Valentine's and St. Patrick's Day, my kids are all candied out. Let me rephrase that: I'M all candied out. My kids will eat sweet treats any time, but for the sake of their teeth and their bodies, I'm hoping the Easter Bunny keeps all the candy hidden and gives my kids a healthier Easter Basket!

Fortunately, it's not that difficult to make up an Easter Basket filled with healthier or non-food treats. Here are some suggestions for Easter Basket fillers:

CLIF Kid snacks make a great healthy alternative to jelly beans, chocolate eggs and chocolate bunnies because they're sweet treats made with good-for-you ingredients like whole grains and real fruit. My kids are just as happy with a CLIF Kid Chocolate Brownie Zbar or a CLIF Kid Crispy Chocolate Zbar as they are with chocolate candy bars! They love the sweet, chocolatey taste, and I love the sustained energy the bars give, versus the sugar highs and lows you get from candy. The same thing goes for CLIF Kid Zfruit -- they are just as sweet and chewy as gummy fruit snacks or fruit roll ups, but they're made from 100% real fruit.

CLIF Kid Zbar Crispy ChocolateZbar Crispy is the first rice crispy snack bar with whole grain toasted oats mixed into the recipe. Zbar Crispy was inspired by all the things kids love about the original Zbar but in a new crispy texture to offer them even more variety. And Zbar Crispy offers more of four essential nutrients – Calcium, Iron, Zinc and Vitamin D – for kids’ growing bodies than other snack bars. Flavors include: Chocolate Chip, Chocolate, Peanut Butter and Cookies ‘n Cream.

CLIF Kid ZfruitZfruit is a tangy, chewy organic fruit snack that offers a serving of organic fruit and is a great source of vitamin C. Zfruit offers a great-tasting fruit snack that doesn’t need to be washed, peeled, cored, seeded, cut or refrigerated before eating, making it easy for kids to eat organic fruit anytime, anywhere.
